Answer 1

Chicken Portobello

4 pounds chicken leg quarters (or 4-pound roaster chicken, cut-up)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup red wine

1 (28-ounce) can chopped tomatoes



Directions

Preheat oven to 425°F. Drain and rinse chicken, trimming off any excess fat. Pat dry. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Arrange in baking pan and roast 30 minutes, or until juices run clear when pricked at thickest point.



Meanwhile, in Dutch oven, heat olive oil and lightly brown onion. Stir in garlic, cook together 2 minutes and add mushrooms and oregano. Continue cooking 5 minutes longer, or until mushrooms have softened. Stir in flour and cook 5 minutes. Add red wine and tomatoes. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes or until thickened. Add chicken and any cooking juices to pot.

Chef's Tip: Substitute 1 cup chicken stock plus 1 tablespoon cider vinegar for red wine.

     pounded to about 1/2 inch thichness

1. egg

1/2 cup of milk

seasoned bread crumbs

16 oz.s of your favorite spaghetti sauce

2 to 3 tablespoons of olive oil

Parmesan cheese

First whisk together the milk and the egg. Then dip the chicken breast into the mixture and then onto the bread crumbs.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. After 3- to4 minutes of browning each side of the chicken breast, set in baking dish or pan!

Put 8 pieces of mozzarella cheese between two of the breast. Two to each breast and pour the spaghetti sauce over the chicken.

Sprinkle with parmesan  and any left over mozerella cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for around 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly

Serve with garlic bread and your favorite salad!
